Graphene is a magical material of cutting-edge technology and has applications in both solar cells and supercapacitors. Speaking of rubber bands, we may wonder if this is related to technology. A group of scientists created an ultra-low-cost motion sensor by combining these two materials, which is of great significance in the field of health monitoring.
Members of the research team are from the University of Surrey and Trinity College, Dublin. They inject graphene into ordinary rubber bands and retain flexibility after special treatment. Since the graphene can conduct electricity, even if there is a slight movement after these rubber bands are connected to the power source, they can be detected by the minute current flowing through the material. According to the team, this can be used to detect bodily functions such as breathing, pulse, and joint motion, which can alert the guardian when the patient breaths or changes in heart rate.
Due to its low material weight and low cost, it can be easily combined with other components to make individual sensor accessories for fragile patients, such as preterm infants. In addition, the team has also become a technology that can be used in other areas such as automobile airbag triggering systems, machine automation and professional sportswear.
Professor Jonathan Coleman of Trinity College in Dublin said that "these sensors are very cheap compared to the existing technology, and only a few pence per device can be used to provide the most effective and ideal monitoring facilities for medical monitoring."
It has the advantages of a peristaltic pump, and a single tube is used alone
without cross-contamination; a wide flow range, reversible forward and reverse operation.Replaceable
charging power, light and portable, flexible operation, can easily cope with stratified sampling, deep water
sampling, sampling of gas samples, high-viscosity liquids, suspended liquid containing tiny particles, etc. It is
especially suitable for field operations.
